Graduate Water Networks Modeller - Water

As a Graduate Water Networks Modeller, you will be introduced to the complex infrastructure that provides clean, safe drinking water to communities every day. You will gain exposure to hydraulic modelling, network analysis, and infrastructure planning, supporting projects that help water companies understand, optimise, and improve the performance of their distribution networks. This opportunity offers development across hydraulic network modelling, model calibration, data analysis, and practical engineering solutions.

As part of a multidisciplinary team, you will see how modelling connects with digital services, asset management, hydraulic analysis, and design to support reliable, efficient, and resilient water supplies. Your core areas of development will include:

• Building technical expertise in hydraulic modelling to analyse water network performance and inform infrastructure planning.
• Developing hands‑on experience in model calibration, data interpretation, and evidence‑based modelling outputs.
• Exploring real‑world water network challenges such as pressure management, leakage reduction, resilience, and asset performance.
• Working with multidisciplinary specialists across modelling, digital services, asset management, hydraulic analysis, and design.
• Developing an understanding of how clean water modelling supports sustainable investment decisions and reliable water supplies for communities.

We are committed to supporting employees in achieving relevant professional qualifications and accreditation. We will provide a structured professional progression plan supporting you to work towards professional chartership status with relevant bodies such as the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM), or another appropriate professional body.

Your Impact In this role, your modelling work will help clients understand how water networks perform, identify opportunities for improvement, and plan future investment. By supporting solutions that improve resilience, reduce leakage, manage pressure, and maintain reliable water supplies, your work will contribute to positive outcomes for communities and the environment.
